Job Description

Our Family Group Conference (FGC) service supports family networks to come together and create support plans across a range of areas of need that can make family life challenging.

The FGC coordinator is independent and is not involved in any decision making with any family members in any way. FGC coordinators work with families to empower them to make and commit to effective plans for children and young people, building on their strengths and drawing on help from wider family and friends. This can involve facilitating a partnership working approach with involved works such as Social Workers, Family Workers and Targeted Youth Workers to identify a family’s needs, strengths and risks.

FGC coordinators will work independently with families, preparing them for their FGC and reviews, having open conversations regarding the need for the FGC and exploring solutions and outcomes. We are particularly interested in those with skills and experience of working with young people and complex family situations where there is a risk of family breakdown and a need for stronger family relationships.

We are recruiting to 3 full time positions on an area model: West, Mid and East.
